Recommendations? I just received a recommendation from one start-up CEO. He said to me: 'It's obvious that you know your stuff.' - I laughed and asked if I can use this as a recommendation. Yeah, I'll try to know my stuff and acknowledge the risk of Dunning Kruger effect. Many things nowadays go so deep, that you can't realistically know a lot about many things. Because if you know a lot about something, you simply won't have any time to know anything about anything else. So even if I'm spending almost all of my time studying or working, I'll have to acknowledge that it means knowing extremely little about anything. That's what you can also acknowledge when working with specialists. They usually know stuff only from very very narrow sector.

Let's Encrypt Public Beta in December. - I hope that I'll have time to get their cert and utilize it for my projects. It remains to be seen how easy to cert renewal process is and how it works out. But if it's well scriptable as it should be, then there shouldn't be any problems making automatic cert refresh every three months. Or even monthly. This is one of the projects that I'm actually excited about. Not because it would be state of art or technically something special. But because it just means so much for the future of the Internet and small site operators.

CloudFlare's Universal DNSSEC - is also awesome security feature. Most of sites won't bother to configured DNSSEC, I've got friends who've gone through it and it required serious effort at least for the first time. I don't wonder why most of sites won't bother. But if it's made easy, why wouldn't you want to use it then. Just like the Let's Encrypt project. This is way cool and important for generic Internet security. - Hey NameCheap, fix your DNSSEC support, plz!

Reminded my self about Hell banning aka Stealth banning. I've also studied different methods of spam control as well as doing it indirectly using different reputation systems. I guess my friends can implement efficient banning which mostly will work automatically, but in some cases will just require the official moderators, to indirectly moderate the users moderating the content which is also being statistically automatically moderated. Yep, all the tricks learned from Hacker News and Reddit are being utilized.
